In talking with the Nancy Framework guys and Sebastien Lambla of OpenRasta, 
it is a nightmare to try and support the Razor view engine on any open 
source web framework because of its tight coupling to ASP.NET. It's becoming 
clear you can't just rip it out and use it elsewhere (thanks Microsoft). In 
the FubuMVC project, we have stonewalled anyone asking for Razor support. We 
would like to support the syntax, as many interested in using the framework 
are asking for it and we know it would increase adoption because 
transitioning would be easier for most teams/companies if it were supported. 
Somebody mentioned Blade, and so here I am inquiring more. :)

The promise of Blade sounds enticing, 100% compatibility with Razor, some 
extra nice syntax additions, and that the quality of the codebase has got to 
be in better shape than what is coming from MS. What is the current state of 
Blade? Is Blade available as a standalone download separate from MonoRail? 
Is it ready to be utilized in another web framework? Anything else I should 
know before embarking?

The vision I have is for a user to be able to download FubuMVC (from 
something like NuGet) and also go download Blade and have them work together 
seamlessly because of a FubuMVC adapter for Blade that lets it work as one 
of many possible view engines for FubuMVC.

Thanks in advance.
